jackets and capelets and pashminas...¡ay dios mío!

love this capelet - but it would make me look like an alien with supernaturally large shoulders...

and this little number is adorable, but probably won't keep me much warmer than having nothing on at all..

i'm in love with both of these creations from holly stalder's lovely etsy shop. they are so airy and beautiful...unless you have big shoulders and a little head. then not so much...

since we're getting married up in the montañas, it gets chilly at night, even though it is mexico in august. thus my dilemma: i am wearing a strapless and backless (yowza!) dress, and i have a feeling that i will be rather chilly by midnight.

this cashmere wrap from Magaschoni is gorgeous and sure to keep me warm. but is it too casual?

i like the idea of this jacket from jovovich-hawk. but it is a bit too casual, and needs long sleeves, or a bigger collar or...something.


i can't decide if i should go with a structured jacket to keep the whole couture thing going, or if i should opt for a softer option, like a pashmina or a silk wrap. so far, i've found nothing jacket-wise that would actually keep me warm while still looking haute.

help! what should i do? do i keep looking for the perfect jacket (or get one custom-made?) or should i make it a wrap?
